Claims’ "lnter’ested Fan'

Whether or not the boys from Charlottetown knew the serious- ness of the act they were per- forming I do not know. Undoubt- edly, however, their coach must have known -- ‘as did several other people lnilmatelya concern- ed; with the matter. Neverthe- lessit was allowed to happen. It Would seem that those who should oppose any such unfair contest were the ones first to put their seals of approval on the matter.“ .

Whether-or not any mainland team who “knew the facts” would agree to play them, I can only guess. Sufficient it is to say that this unfortunate incid- ent- willl undoubted):- have a very marked and very disastrous ef- fect on intermediate baseball on Prince Edward Island. This is especially true in King’s Coun- high all season and where you have several. times commented on the large number of enthus- iastic fans who assembled each week to give their favourite foams the support which meant so much.

King’s County fans and play- ers were extremely annoyed at the turn of events. I sincerely hope that such an act will nev- cp be repeated, and—that it will not to greatly dishearten young baseball players outside of Char- lottetown.

How other parts of the pro-

vince will react to this issue I

do not know, but trust your

the matter.

NEW OWNER

ago. . Lee's Nightmare was sired by Bud Axe-worthy, P. 2.16, and her dam was Lady Lou by Colonel Aubrey, time record 2.00%

The writer had constant-did.~ to’ do with Colonel Aubrey and Bud Axewonthy James O’Brien had given me the Colonel to race in my stable, and we foundtlhat his left front leg had a much shorter stride than Ills right, due to an injury which he had re. ceived and it made him lame un- til he had several warming miles. Then We found that by attaching 'a two-ounce toe weight to the left ,foot the stride was equalled and he could pace very fast. We won all the starts we made with him. and later that fall had arranved a meeting to give him a record against time. It Was a cold afternoon, but he paced the mile in 2.09%. We forwarded the results to the Nat- ional . Trotting Association. but they informed us that as the track hadn't. applied for sanction of the time trial it eculd notb e re- cognized. Then he was retired to the stud and has proven of great value as a sire.

Bud Axewonthy was a full bro- ther to the then worlds’ char p- ion trotting stallion, Lee Axe- worthy 1581/4. He passed through the hands of several good train- ers. but he was such a high- snirited horse that he had no success with any of them. al- though he showed tremendous flights of _speed.

His first start in this provine was at Summ-erside, where he went to the half in a shade over a minute and then made a long

WILL TRY AGAIN

NEWPORT. R.1. (AP) — Great Britain, her America‘s Cup hopes sunk from under her, is not giv- ing up the ship.

“1 frankly don't think we shall ever give up trying for the cup," said Hugh Goodson, member of the syndicate which owns Sceptre, the British sloop whose challenge was defeated Fniday.

“We’re bitterly disappointed not winning the cup but we lost to a better boa-t.” said Goodson after Sceptre lost her fourth straight race aagisnt Columbia, the Amer- ican defender.

Sceptre joins a long fleet of frustrated challengers. Since the cup was established in 1851 seven- teen challenges have been made to lift the cup from the New York Yacht Club. None has succeeded. ADMIRES CREW

“I’m a tremendous critic, but I have the greatest admination for the way Sceptre's been

handled by her crew.”

Briggs Cunningham. Columbia‘s skipper, expressed similar feel- ing-s at a press conference at the Ida Lew-is Yacht Club after com- ing ashore. But, said he, “It is disappointing she (Sceptre) didn’t go any faster. It’s sort of an anti- climax.”

Goodson said “I'm pleased the cup series ended on such a: happy note for everyone but us."

At the yacht club, Sceptre’s as- sistant hell'nsm-an. Colin Ratsey, revealed the Sceptre seriously considered forfeiting the race when the sloop’s mainsail boom broke. \

“We thought‘the ends might kill some one," he said.

PLANS VAG‘UE

Columbia’s navigator, Henry Sears. who is also head of the syndicate that owns her, said tu- ture plans for. the victorious Yankee 12-metne have not been

“It depends on the amount 01 12-metre racing next summer, said Sears.

Sears, the man largely respon- smle for reviving the America’s Cup series after a lapse of 21 years said he would be “terribly disappointed” if another chal- lenge is not submitted .

Will Goodson's syndicate try again? “I'll need more than rive minutes to answer that,” said Goodson to a loughing ring of yachting reporters, now well- tanned by their days at sea.

For now, Goodson said. Sceptre will be towed to a Stamford,

taken out, and then shipped back

"I hope she'll dive for another day and many more races.” But he added he was thinking - of “some possible. refinements" to speed her up. '
